Title: The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge Author: Rainer Maria Rilke Narrator: Jamie Parker Format: mp3 Length: 6 hrs and 50 mins Release date: 12-05-20 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 16 ratings Genres: Biographical Fiction Publisher's Summary: The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge (Die Aufzeichnungen des Malte Laurids Brigge) has been described as an anti-novel. It is set in Paris in the period just before the First World War, but it presents a bleaker milieu than that described by Proust. The language is terse, the atmosphere painful, the images uncompromising. Rilke drew on the short period he spent in Paris in 1903 where, in contrast to the rural circumstances in which he had lived before, he found the underbelly of urban life distressing.
